Grazia wins cover of the year at The Maggies
The front of a January edition of women’s magazine Grazia, which features model Miranda Kerr holding the Australian flag, has won cover of the year at an awards organised by online mag subscription company iSubscribe.
Ita Buttrose, chair of the judging panel, said of Grazia’s effort: “This is an extremely appealing cover. It has impact, pizzazz and that ‘look at me’ factor that all covers must have. Miranda Kerr is a great cover choice as she is a popular celebrity with appeal and especially since becoming a mother. Good cover lines; excellent use of colour. Well done Grazia.”
The Maggies were shortlisted by a panel chaired by Buttrose, and a shortlist was put to a public vote; 85,000 votes were cast over five weeks.
The category winners were:
looks amazing for a mother..
Gourmet Traveller covers are amazing at the moment.
The Outback magazine cover of the kelpie, and the Australian Geographic cover of the dingo are also great, strong images – and have ‘buy me’ appeal.
Harper’s should have won. Miranda is overexposed.
